the park- feist

"The Park"

Why should he come back through the park?
You thought that you saw him but no you did not
It's not him who'd come across
The sea to surprise you
Not him who would know
Where in London to find you

With sadness so real that it populates
The city and leaves you homeless again
Steam from the cup and snow on the path
The seasons have changed from present to past

wake me from
my sick dream God
that 
everything
EVERYTHING
is all about me
shake me from this 
blind walking
this lie talking
this plastic world
and plastic things 
and plastic love and
plastic food
not nuturing
but
vomiting
im missing your grace
im missing my faith
grace through faith
redemption through faith
the power of God
chosen
taken back
spilled love
in blood
all youve done one
giant sum
purchased at the price
of Gods holy Son
will i remember today
and forget tomorow
days of sorrow
bc i waste
in shame
not awknowledging your stains
that
already
freed me
you dont even realize...

we all need a savior
run
inside and hide
shy away he crowd

in your quiet place
yell laugh cry hug smile
fall
into your
empty room
melodious sounds lifeting high
high
about your small roof
let your thoughts simmer
boil
down
have you ever felt
that you needed to close
your mouth
and walk away from
even those you love
mixing they mix
with the voice of God
cant find him cuz u dont have time
to drown out
every one else

what a beautiful mess im in

wake up
hearing the voice strong in those ears
"ring in a pigs snout
beautiful but filled with fears"
roll out of bed how to make the right decisions?

its all subjective
make them we will see what happens..
no.

but what of that pounding sensation
in your throat
as you pause in the mirror
eyes clear bursting green
in the early morning.
deep in the crevices
of your silk beating
life pump;
streams of
truth flowing
through you
up to wide eyes;
they stare back.

ignore.
look away so you can save face
clutching to things that make you feel alive
deep down you know it will
lead you to die.

temping looks and emotions
you must feel wanted
known and cherished?
get it from kind hearts... even though they
perish with you?
you fight and create a broken path
each time you let go of waiting because
"if he looks away again.."
you couldn't...bear..

open the doors
with your makeshift confidence
but then hes standing there
the challenge to all your fears
too good to imagine
even with many flaws
loving and surrendered
focused and handsome
secure and more.



not yours
maybe never.
but youve gone your own way
torn your love letter
given up on the idea
your a ring in a swines snout
no discretion, you let yourself out
onto the platters of the hungry.
leaving Bethlehem for Moab.


still hes just an image of a greater man
a person with rough scars in his hands
enough - and in control over pitiful schemes
reminding who
your supposed to be
a woman who FEARS THE LORD.
she shall be praised.

let me wait on the floor of
your house by your feet
take me out of the snout
polish me so ill be clean
